Connor's Heart

Connor is such a happy boy that it's hard to believe he's been through all he has in just one year! We went to Little Rock on May 14th for his 1 year post heart surgery appointment. We have been waiting for this appointment for a long time!!! They were finally rerunning the heart tests to make sure his aorta repair was holding up and to see if further surgery or ballooning would be necessary. We were very nervous but anxious to get it over with!! We were told to not allow Connor to eat 4 hours prior to his appointment because they would sedate him......he actually did very well! And turns out they didn't even sedate him!! Which was good because we were able to drive home the same day. We did have to restrain him and he let us know LOUD and clear that he was not happy about that! All of his tests turned out fabulous! His aorta shows no signs of narrowing and his heart looks completely healthy!!! Whew! We are so thankful for this news! He will now see the cardiologist every year instead of every 3 months! Yay!
